As I drove in she was walking into the house with eggs for breakfast and
homemade biscuits ready for baking. Somehow in rural Southern culture,
food is always the first thought of neighbors when there is trouble.
That is something they can do and not feel uncomfortable. It is
something they do not have to explain or discuss or feel self-conscious
about.

"Here, I brought you some fresh eggs for your breakfast. And
here's a cake. And some potato salad." It means, "I love you. And I am
sorry for what you are going through and I will share as much of your
burden as I can." And maybe potato salad is a better way of saying it.

Any police officer who drives himself home at night in the family sedan with the NRA
sticker in the back window is a traitor to the uniform, and is
demonstrating a profound lack of respect for the brother officers who
were killed in Las Vegas.--Charles Pierce at esquire.com

The Bundy Effect -
The next family threatened, the next activist individual or group
arrested or black-bagged without legitimate cause, the next major false
flag, the next use of military forces as civil law enforcement, the next
unConstitutional misstep, and I have no doubt whatsoever in my mind
that a revolt will erupt. It's not about making grand predictions; it's
about examining the logical odds, and the odds are high. Brandon Smith at alt-market.com

Remus says - ISIS took Mosul
with 800 lightly armed irregulars against 30,000 regulars with
artillery, armor and air. There's a difference between motivated
warriors and paid uniform-fillers. They don't belong on the same
battlefield. Nothing reveals this more clearly than a civil war.

IRS's obstruction of justice -
Lerner's computer sent those emails through a mail server. That server
is a centralized device that, in a government installation is, with a
high degree of certainty, backed up and those backups are archived on a
permanent basis... I don't believe there are no backups of both the
server and Lerner's computer. This means that they were almost-certainly
deliberately destroyed, which is a crime.Karl Denninger at market-ticker.org

Modest proposal - If
I were president, or if I were in the House or Senate, I'd load a bus
up every day with illegal immigrants, say 50 per day. Then I would lock
them in the appropriate embassy... Or, if that didn't work, every flight
from a (flag carrier) airline would be making its southbound flights
full of illegals. George Ure at peoplenomics.com

Seeding the country with criminal aliens -
The ones we are losing are convicted felons, aliens from special
interest countries, and other high risk individuals... we have been
releasing aliens, through ICE, in
Brownsville, Texas and McAllen, Texas. We have been ordered to go out of
our way to bus them to those locations for release because they are
cities of mostly Hispanic heritage, so fewer people will notice or care.
We have been doing that for months before the stories broke in Phoenix,
Arizona a couple of weeks ago.Unidentified BP Agent, via Adan Salazar at infowars.com

Career dilemma -
Accusations of siding with the enemy leave Sgt. Bergdahl with only two
options: pursue a doctorate at Berkley or become a Senator from

Just who is America's police force, and by extension the Obama
administration, which is behind this quiet militarization of local
police forces with weapons that would normally be seen in a warzone,
preparing for war against?, asks Tyler Durden in this article, Across America, Police Departments Are Quietly Preparing For War, at Zero Hedge.

The American voter has placed untrustworthy people in positions of
power and kept them there when they have clearly demonstrated that they
have violated that public trust. Has America lost her ability to stand
up against the tyrants and do what is right rather than what is easy?
Obviously, this administration thinks you are as corrupt as they are and
will vote them back into office or these young children would not be
streaming into America to tug at your hearts and empty your heads of
reason, says this statement from the National Association of Former Border Patrol Officers, via Bob Unruh at WND.

As the issue nears crisis level, numerous indicators suggest the United
States had long anticipated this very same mass influx and even
attempted to schedule plans for it in advance... Despite Obama’s 2009
promise to end veteran homelessness by 2015, a nearly impossible goal
which the president has less than six months to accomplish,
accommodations for illegal immigrants have been virtually taken care of
overnight.Salazar and McAdoo at infowars.com

U.S. Border Patrol agents are being recruited to serve as babysitters
for the influx of illegal immigrant minors that have entered the country
recently through the Rio Grande region of Texas... This is the
front-line federal agency responsible for preventing terrorists and
weapons of mass destruction from entering the United States... The
special detail calls for 140 agents to staff and operate a Nogales
“placement center” at full capacity, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for
the “foreseeable future,” the memo says.judicialwatch.org/blog

A law-enforcement source in Texas tells me this week that countless
illegal aliens are being released into the general public despite
testing positive for tuberculosis. “The feds are putting them on public
transportation to God knows where,” he said. Michelle Malkin at nationalreview.com

McCain's Sword of Democles
- It is believed by many crewmen and those who have investigated the
case that McCain deliberately “wet-started” his A-4E to shake up the guy
in the plane behind his A-4. “Wet-starts” shoot a large flame from the
tail of the aircraft. In McCain’s case, the “wet-start” apparently
“cooked off” and launched the Zuni rocket from the rear F-4 that touched
off the explosions and massive fire. The F-4 pilot was reportedly
killed in the conflagration. McCain was quickly transferred to the USS Oriskany... it is between “very unlikely” and “impossible” for the Forrestal “wet start” to have been accidental. Wayne Madsen at waynemadsenreport.com

Remus says - Aside from whether
McCain wet-started his plane or not, there was the matter of shortcuts,
the missiles were accidentally wired hot-to-fire before they should have
been because two safety bypasses happened, each made without knowledge
of the other. The flight deck was also chock-full of 1,000 bombs made in
1935. The crew was anxious to get them off their ship, they were
dripping and unstable. Other than missiles, "only" those
thousand-pounders detonated in the fire. Just to round out the screwups,
some bomb mounts were only rated for 500 pounders. But such is war,
this is how combat operations really are.

You couldn’t cook up a more bizarre government response to the illegal immigration crisis gripping the nation.

Despite the ongoing flood of illegal aliens pouring across the
Mexican border into the U.S., the Department of Homeland Security has
now turned its sights on Asian restaurants in the sleepy little town of
State College, Pennsylvania, the home of Penn State University.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents swept into the State
College area and raided at least eight Asian-owned businesses, arresting
staff and hauling out cartons of alleged evidence.

A buffet restaurant popular with university students and a brand-new Karaoke bar were among the businesses ICE raided.

The seasonally-adjusted price index for meats, poultry, fish, and
eggs hit an all-time high in May, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).

In January 1967, when the BLS started tracking this measure, the
index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs was 38.1. As of last May, it
was 234.572. By this January, it hit 240.006. By April, it hit 249.362.
And, in May, it climbed to a record 252.832.

“The index for meats, poultry, fish and eggs has risen 7.7 percent
over the span [last year],” says the BLS. “The index for food at home
increased 0.7 percent, its largest increase since July 2011. Five of the
six major grocery store food group indexes increased in May. The index
for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs rose 1.4 percent in May after a 1.5
increase in April, with virtually all its major components
increasing,” BLS states.

A 73-year-old Hamblen County man was recovering Sunday night after
getting shot twice while defending his property from two burglars.

The incident started around 11:40 p.m. Saturday night just off Long Creek Road.

Don Grubb was in bed Saturday night when his dog wouldn't stop barking.

"It was around midnight. My dog Toby was barking, and I got up and come outside and a car come by real slow," Grubb said.

The
car, described as a light blue Crown Victoria, then drove right into
his garden. The drivers took off to his granddaughter's house next door.
That's when Grubb, a military veteran, grabbed his gun and jumped into
action.

"I sat up there by their car and waited on them. I could
hear them at the house. I heard it when they kicked the door down,"
Grubb said.

While the White House continues to insist the influx of children from
Central America has nothing to do with its immigration policies,
mounting evidence is proving otherwise.

In addition to a leaked internal memo
that pins the administration’s lax enforcement laws as responsible for
the recent humanitarian crisis in Texas and Arizona, Jorge Ramos, anchor
of the Spanish-language television network Univision, further
challenged the Obama narrative that the surge is a direct response to
violence and poverty in Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras.
In an interview with a Marlen Mena Bautista, a Honduran mother whose
15-year-old son recently crossed the border illegally, Ramos found that
children are instead coming to the United States because of a widespread
perception that they won’t be deported.

In our day many of us have become aware of the prevalence of
something called “Cultural Marxism.” We have a vague idea of what that
means and we realize it is something that is not good, for this country
or any country—and we are not the only ones who have imbibed it. Yet
many do not really realize how it works to destabilize a society.

Recently, I read an interesting book called Saints and Scoundrels,
written by Robin Phillips and published by Canon Press in Moscow,
Idaho. Starting on page 272, Mr. Phillips gives as good a critique on
Cultural Marxism and how it works as anything I have seen anywhere. It’s
written in layman’s terms, not difficult to understand, and I believe
he wrote it that way on purpose. John Q. Average, reading this, will be
able to grasp how Cultural Marxism is affecting our society and culture
today. If this book ever gets any kind of following in our day I can
just imagine the response of the church-at-large. That response will be
“The Lord’s in control, so don’t worry about any of this stuff.”

A suspected terrorist linked to the
2012 Benghazi terror attack that killed four Americans has been captured
inside Libya by U.S. forces and currently is en route to the United
States, Fox News has learned.

Sources told Fox News that the suspect, Ansar al-Sharia commander
Ahmed Abu Khattala, was captured Sunday during a joint U.S. military and
law enforcement operation, and will face prosecution in the United
States.

We drove down a quiet country road, trees and green meadows in every
direction. Mount Carmel, the famous Branch Davidian Compound, was a
sharp turn to the right. Gone was the mailbox at the entrance with
Branch Davidian Church clearly written on it in big black letters where
the once 100-plus residents of a devout break-off of the Seventh-day
Adventist Church received their mail.

Once on the grounds, we were met with two simple memorials each
telling us that something very significant and violent had happened
here; one to the four ATF agents killed in the February 28, government
raid. A few feet away was a shrine of sorts with a name on a plague for
each of the 76 Davidians (19 men, 34 women, 23 children) who lost their
lives in the fiery furnace in their place of residence 21 years ago,
April 19, 1993. Sympathetic visitors had left money on one of the
shrines.

Russian troops returned to the Russian-Ukrainian border, said yesterday the Secretary of the National Security and Defense of Ukraine Andrey Paruby at a press conference in Kiev .

According to him, in Millerovo (Rostov region). Arrived group of 150 paratroopers of the 76th Airborne Assault Division from Pskov . In general, the group of Russian troops near Ukraine Paruby estimated at 16,000 people on the eastern border and 22 000 people in the Crimea.

Liberals were so excited when news broke of a husband-and-wife team
of psychopaths killing two police officers and a heroic armed civilian
who confronted them in Las Vegas... and threw a "Don't Tread On Me"
Gadsden flag over one of their victims. At last! At long, long last! The elusive Tea Party killer had finally arrived!

They've tried to pin virtually every mass killing to the Tea Party or
conservatives, of course, ever since the orgy of slander they unleashed
within minutes of the Tucson shootings. The most infamous subsequent botched smear job was when Brian Ross of ABC News breathlessly reported
his discovery of a Tea Party guy who had the same name as the Colorado
movie theater shooter. The Boston Marathon bombings were initially
portrayed as the work of anti-tax activists. On and on it went, as the
Left tried to will the Elusive Tea Party Killer into existence, while
studiously ignoring the ideology of such individuals as L.A. madman
Chris Dorner, or the Family Research Council shooter.

Some readers have written
questioning my series of columns lampooning the lavender graduation at
UNC-Wilmington. That is the ceremony where UNCW graduates are given
purple cords to show that they are gay and lavender cords to show they
approve of homosexuality. Students then wear these cords when they get
their degrees at the university-wide graduation ceremony.

Some self-proclaimed conservatives have reasoned that since
participation in the ceremony is optional, lavender graduation isn't a
topic worthy of column space. That view is misguided as it fails to
account for ingrained patterns in our institutional history, which show
that today's "option" is often tomorrow's mandate. So these columns are
about more than sexual identity politics. They also have implications
for freedom of speech and freedom of conscience. Consider the example of
our now-infamous Seahawk Respect Compact.

Some years ago, a staff member wrote to me in distress because he was
being pressured into signing the respect compact. He feared that there
would be repercussions for not signing it, even though it was said to be
optional. Since then, there have been three developments with regard to
the compact.

Members of the Islamic State of Iraq
and the Levant, or ISIS, were trained in 2012 by U.S. instructors
working at a secret base in Jordan, according to informed Jordanian
officials.

The officials said dozens of ISIS members were trained at the time as
part of covert aid to the insurgents targeting the regime of Syrian
President Bashar al-Assad in Syria. The officials said the training was
not meant to be used for any future campaign in Iraq.

The Jordanian officials said all ISIS members who received U.S.
training to fight in Syria were first vetted for any links to extremist
groups like al-Qaida.

In February 2012, WND was first to report
the U.S., Turkey and Jordan were running a training base for the Syrian
rebels in the Jordanian town of Safawi in the country’s northern desert
region.

That report has since been corroborated by numerous other media accounts.

This post has been long in the making.
It’s a response to an attitude that I see and hear expressed constantly
like a steady drip of arrogance and entitlement. My indignation against
it has begun to boil over; and now that primary season is in full swing
here in Arizona, I think the time is ripe to address it. I’m sure it
will get me cross-ways with some, but I think it’s time someone said it
out loud (or in writing in this case).

Here’s my message to the Republican Party establishment. I don’t owe
you anything. Not my time, my money, or my vote. I don’t care how bad
things get, or how awful the policies of the Democrats are–and trust me,
I fully understand how awful they are. I’m not required to support any
of your politicians just because they have an “R” next to their name, or
shut my mouth about the things I believe strongly about, just to ensure
your victory on election day. In fact, I’m not even obligated to
contribute to your victory. What happens when I mark my ballot is
between me and God, and you aren’t entitled to any of it.

"It's time for the U.S to get serious about immigration. We can start
by taking away their incentives to be here. All benefits: medical, food
stamps, public housing, education, everything. ...Our government is
encouraging foreign nationals to come into our country illegally and
stay."

***************************************

U.S. Border Patrol will put in place new policies to restrict the
use of force by agents. The new rules come amid the revelation that
illegal immigrants are entering the U.S. at record rates and
overwhelming federal resources.

Under the new restrictions, Border Patrol agents will be required to
avoid situations where deadly force may be used. "Examples include
refraining from blocking moving vehicles' paths or firing at
rock-throwers unless in imminent danger, the Huffington Post reported.
"Additionally, agents will be trained on how to carry and use lighter
weapons, while also facing restrictions on taser use."
Placing tight restrictions on Border Patrol agents could hinder their ability to protect the border or their own lives.

The following is a list of current SCV officials at the national,
regional (or Army), and state levels who also are (or have been
recently) members or representatives of groups listed by the Southern
Poverty Law Center as hate groups.

In the list below, each person’s name is followed by his position in the SCV and, in parentheses, his hate group affiliation.

Not listed are a large number of SCV officials who have spoken at meetings of hate groups or worked alongside their members.

SCV executive council member Kirk Lyons,
a well-known white supremacist who is currently running for an even
higher SCV office, is not listed because he has publicly denied being a
current member of any hate group.

Remembrance

Winners: Navy Cross Nguyen Van Kiet & MOH Thomas R. Norris This week’s Medal of Honor hero is one of a handful of Navy SEALs awarded the MOH in the Vietnam War. Norris snuck behind enemy lines with a South Vietnamese Navy petty officer rescued two downed pilots in 1972–when most of our resources had been pulled from the country. Interesting to note that later year, Norris was himself rescued by another SEAL Michael E. Thornton.More @ Medal of Honor Roll Call

My great grandfather and great uncle knew all the men in the "Civil War Requiem" video as they were part of the 53rd NC which was the sole unit defending Fort Mahone. (Fort Mahone was named "Fort Damnation" by the Yankees) *Handpicked men of the 53rd (My great grandfather was one of these) made the final, night assault at Petersburg in an attempt to break Grant's line. This was against Fort Stedman which was a few miles to the slight northeast. They initially succeeded, but reinforcements drove them back. This video is made from photographs which were taken the day after the 53rd evacuated the lines the night before to begin the retreat to Appomattox. I have many more pictures taken by the same photographer, one of these shows a 14 year old boy and the other is the famous picture of the blond, handsome soldier with his musket.

*General Gordon promised the men a gold medal and 30 days leave if they accomplished their task and many years after the War my great grandfather wrote General Gordon, who was then governor of Georgia about this incident. They exchanged several letters which I have framed. See first link below.

He was a drummer boy in the WBTS, survived the War only to die a few years later. He was caught in an ice storm on his way home, but instead of seeking shelter, continued on his horse until the end. His clothes had to be cut off and he died a few days later.
